Ken was a great friend and a strong influence on me and my brothers. Ken taught us all how to be hard workers and the lessons we learned from him have helped us all be successful in life. I will always have alot of good memories working on the farm with Ken ,Chad Franklin, and the rest of the Burrer family.
